Little Cloud and Lady Wind is the second picture book from Nobel Prize winner Toni Morrison and her son, Slade is based on Aesop's fable.

Little Cloud floats in the sky along with the other clouds and has a living that any cloud would wish for, but Little Cloud isn't happy. She doesn't like to make thunder and rain like the other clouds. She loves the earth below and admires lot-- purple mountains, scarves of snow, silver-topped waves. She wishes to live and play on the earth.
Later the Little Cloud understands that every single thing has its special place in the world, most especially her.
